The spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of a series of p-iV^ ZV-dialkylaminobenzylidenemalononitriles derivatives (1, 2, and 3) have been studies. These materials exhibit a strong intramolecular charge-transfer absorption. In this series the conformational freedom of the electron-donating group (R2N) was progressively restricted by structurally anchoring the nitrogen atom to the aromatic ring by alkyl chains. Molecularrestriction of rotation of the NR2 group had a profound effect on the nonradiative decay rate and the excited state dipole moment. However, it had little effect on the ground state dipole moment. The most pronounced change in dipole moment (µ) on electronic excitation was observed when the NR2 group was free to rotate. The rate of internal rotation of the dialkylamino group was estimated to be 2 X 10n s'1.
